Regarding the parsing of await expression.

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi,

In the pep, 
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0492/#examples-of-await-expressions 

It is said,

await await coro()  is SyntaxError, instead, we should use await (await coro())
Why? because of await is not left-associative?


also, for 
await -coro() , it should be written as,  await (-coro())

I don't understand the point here.  Why can't the parser figure out it indeed 
is await (-coro()) ?


Is it due to the fact Python uses LL(1) or just because of current impl doesn't 
do that?

Regards.

The order of iterable de-referencing in assignment?

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi,

Given a = [1, 2]

a.extend(a) makes a = [1,2, 1,2]

One might guess a.extend(a) would turn into an infinite loop.  It turns out 
here Python first gets all the items of `a' and then append them to `a', so the 
infinite loop is avoided.

My question is, is there any doc on the behavior of things like this?

Another related example might be:
a[:] = a
Hopefully Python first gets all the items on the *right* side and then assigns 
them to the left.

Why monkey patching on module object doesn't work ?

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi,

I am using Python2.

For the following snippet,

http://ideone.com/i36pKO

I'd suppose the dummy_func would be invoked, but seems not.

Indeed, heapq.heapify does invoke cmp_lt per here:
https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/2.7/Lib/heapq.py#l136

So why this way of monkey patching failed?

How to simulate C style integer division?

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi,

I wanna simulate C style integer division in Python3.

So far what I've got is:
# a, b = 3, 4

import math
result = float(a) / b
if result > 0:
  result = math.floor(result)
else:
  result = math.ceil(result)


I found it's too laborious. Any quick way?

That makes sense.

To be generic, the caller won't check what the returned result is. It
just takes it as a normal PyObject. Traditionally, for functions like
above, the reference is assumed to be transferred to the caller.

Why PyINCREF on _PyFalseStruct and _PyTrueStruct?

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi.

While reading the rich_compare of PyLongObject, I noticed this line:

https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/a49737bd6086/Objects/longobject.c#l2785

It increments the ob_ref of the builtin True/False object.

Initializing the ob_ref of True/False to one so that they won't be
garbage collected if fair enough. Why do we increment it?

I don't see the reason behind it, since these two objects should
always stay in the memory and never participate the garbage collecting
system.

Weird behavior on __dict__ attr

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi.

My context is a little hard to reproduce.

NS3 is a network simulation tool written in C++. I am using its Python binding.

So the class I am dealing with is from a .so file.

Say, I do the following:

%

import ns.network.Node as Node

# Node is a class
# it has a __dict__ attr

# Now I instantiate an instance of Node
n = Node()

# I checked, there is no __dict__ on 'n'
# but the following succeeds.

n.foobar = 3



My understanding is the foobar is stored in n.__dict__, but seemingly n has no 
__dict__.

So where does the foobar go?


TIA.

Nested loops is strangely slow, totally at a loss.

[Shiyao Ma]

When doing nested loop, the very first iteration of the innermost loop ends 
ultimately slow.

Let's the code speak.

The following code is quite contrived. Actually it's derived from my 3d-dct 
script.
The actual difference is way more significant than this example.

In case of any evil of gmail, bpaste here: https://bpaste.net/show/edfef62edb17

# this constructs a space_len x space_len x space_len 3D coordinate
import timeit
from itertools import product
space_len = 580
space = product(xrange(space_len), xrange(space_len), xrange(space_len))


sparse_cloud = product(xrange(1), xrange(1), xrange(1))

for i, j, k in sparse_cloud:
ts = timeit.default_timer()
if (i, j, k) in space: pass
te = timeit.default_timer()
print(A, finish a loop with , te-ts)
print(Done Test A)


sparse_cloud = product(xrange(1000), xrange(1000), xrange(1000))
for i, j, k in sparse_cloud:
ts = timeit.default_timer()
if (i, j, k) in space: pass
te = timeit.default_timer()
print(B, finish a loop with , te-ts)
print(Done Test B)


# example output

('A, finish a loop with ', 2.1457672119140625e-06)
Done Test A
('B, finish a loop with ', 8.736134052276611)
('B, finish a loop with ', 1.9073486328125e-06)
('B, finish a loop with ', 0.0)
('B, finish a loop with ', 0.0)
('B, finish a loop with ', 1.1920928955078125e-06)
('B, finish a loop with ', 9.5367431640625e-07)
('B, finish a loop with ', 9.5367431640625e-07)
...


We can see that the first iteration of B ends rather slow, 8.7 seconds here.

Why? I am curious about the internals, what's happening under the hood that 
makes this happen?

Thanks in advance!

 myfunc()

This is also so true, as you are print the var 'L'.


 The question is why I'm getting empty list while working with comprehension

You are also getting [None]*3 in comprenhension inside a function.

Re: Can you use self in __str__

[Shiyao Ma]

2014-11-29 11:36 GMT+08:00 Chris Angelico ros...@gmail.com:
 You can use id() on any object. You are guaranteed to get back an
 integer which is both stable and unique among all ids of objects that
 exist at the same time as the one you called it on. For as long as the
 object continues to exist, that number *will* stay the same. Sometimes
 that's all you need; for instance, imagine a simple mail server which
 produces logs like this:

 [142857] Beginning processing of message
 [142857] Parsing headers
 [314159] Beginning processing of message
 [314159] Parsing headers
 [142857] Storing in destination mailbox
 [314159] Connecting to destination server
 [142857] Finished processing of message
 [314159] Message accepted by destination
 [271871] Beginning processing of message
 [314159] Finished processing of message

 You can easily see, from the initial numbers, what log lines are
 associated with what messages. (Note that emails have their own IDs,
 which could in theory be used, but the id() of an internal dict can be
 used even before the email's ID has been read - as you see from the
 example, a log entry for Parsing headers has to be made prior to
 info from the headers being used.) It's not a problem if another
 142857 comes up later on; there's a very clear begin and end to the
 message, and you're guaranteed that nothing can possibly be
 interspersed with a colliding ID.

 In other implementations of Python, these numbers might look less
 arbitrary (Jython, I believe, allocates them sequentially); but the
 code will work just as well on any compliant implementation of the
 language, because everything I've said above is a language guarantee,
 not a CPython implementation detail.

 ChrisA


Thanks. Informed.
The implementation dependent thing is id(obj) == virtual mem addr
(which caused my bad feeling).
Apparently have nothing to do with it here, though.

And 'id' is seemingly great to differentiate each obj.

 def __str__(self):

 This is part of a Hand class.  I need a hand for the dealer and a hand
 for the player.
 dealer=Hand()
 player=Hand()
 This prints out 'Hand contains  foo bar
 for both the dealer's hand and the player's hand.

 Is there a way to include self in the __string__ so it reads
 Dealer hand contains foo bar
 Player hand contains foo bar

I bet you want the object name (aka, dealer, player) be included in
the string 's'.
To that end, you need to access the namespace where 'self' is in.
But I dunno where the namespace 'self' resides in.
Does PyObject has a field to store the namespace of an object?
Appreciated if anyone could
inform me on this.

Now, make a little assumption that the instance lives in the module
level. Then we can do
this:

#!/usr/bin/env python

class Hand(object):
def __init__(self):
self.hand = [1, 2, 3, 4]

def __str__(self):
s = self._myname +  hand contains 
for x in self.hand:
s = s + str(x) +  
return s

@property
def _myname(self):
# get the module
mod = self.__module__
import sys
ns = vars(sys.modules[mod])
# NB only works the instance is at the module level
for name, obj in ns.iteritems():
if id(obj) == id(self):
break
else:
#nothing found
return 
return name

John = Hand()
print(John)

# this prints
# John hand contains 1 2 3 4

 TypeError: 'in string' requires string as left operand, not NoneType

 This is surprising.  The description of the 'in' operatator is, 'True if

 behaves as if it were written:

 for item in iterable:
 if item == x:
 return True
 else:
 return False

 why the extra type check for str.__contains__()?  That seems very
 unpythonic.  Duck typing, and all that.


It's a little bit inconsistent.  But it's clearly documented here:
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/expressions.html#in

Which, according to its own logic, the string is not  a *container* type.
It's just some chars, and that totally makes sense for to restrict the type
of x in str to be convertible to type str. On the other hand, containers
like list, and tuple, they are heterogeneous by default in Python, so a
item by item comparison is needed.

Re: try/except/finally

It would be great if someone could discuss it from the viewpoint of
bytecode. e.g., how the stack is popped, etc.

 You don't have to ban all nonsensical things. Most guns allow you to
 shoot yourself in the foot, even those with static type checking.

Re: Bug? ( () == [] ) != ( ().__eq__([]) )

[Shiyao Ma]

Sorry. I don't quite get it. As you said, it first tries,
leftOperand.__eq__(rightOperand) then if it returns NotImplemented, it goes
to invoke rightOperand.__eq__(leftOperand). But for any reason, [] == ()
returns false, why?

 You don't normally want to be calling dunder methods directly. The
 reasoning behind this behaviour goes back to a few things, including a
 way to handle 1 == Foo() where Foo is a custom type that implements
 __eq__; obviously the integer 1 won't know whether it's equal to a Foo
 instance or not, so it has to defer to the second operand to get a
 result. This deferral is done by returning NotImplemented, which is an
 object, and so is true by default. I don't see any particular reason
 for it to be false, as you shouldn't normally be using it; it's more
 like a null state, it means I don't know if we're equal or not. If
 neither side knows whether they're equal, then they're presumed to be
 unequal, but you can't determine that from a single call to __eq__.

At a loss on python scoping.

[Shiyao Ma]

Hi,
suppose I have a file like this:
class A:
r = 5
def func(self, s):
self.s = s
a = A()
print(a.r)# this should print 5, but where does py store the name of r

a.func(3)
print(a.s)# this should print 3, also where does py store this name.
what's the underlying difference between the above example?

Re: At a loss on python scoping.

[Shiyao Ma]

Sorry for my obscure description.
the name of r , AFAIK, everything in python is just a reference. For
example, a = 3, means a points to a small integer; b= [] means b points to
a list somewhere in the memory. So I call r as the name of r.

To clarify my question.
say I wanna look up a.r
I guess the first step is to look inside a, maybe in the __dict__?
As proved in my ipython, the __dict__ is empty.
So, it will look up in A.__dict__
Here comes my first question, where does the scope of class A falls in when
considering LEGB.

Re: python3 string format

[Shiyao Ma]

Thx for your reply.
I am using pycharm and simply press go to declaration which directs me to
a py file, containing the following code:
def format(*args, **kwargs): # known special case of str.format

S.format(*args, **kwargs) - string

Return a formatted version of S, using substitutions from args and
kwargs.
The substitutions are identified by braces ('{' and '}').

pass
I am curious how you find the corresponding c source code.

 I don't know what source you're looking at.  In CPython, both of those
 types are implemented in C, not Python, so there would be no pass
 statements involved.

 The int.__format__ method is implemented at:

 http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3c437e591499/Objects/longobject.c#l4373

 It mainly just calls the _PyLong_FormatAdvancedWriter function, which is
 at:


 http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3c437e591499/Python/formatter_unicode.c#l1399

 The str.__format__ method similarly is implemented at:


 http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3c437e591499/Objects/unicodeobject.c#l12851

 and calls the _PyUnicode_FormatAdvancedWriter function at:


 http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3c437e591499/Python/formatter_unicode.c#l1363

 I don't think this is a scoping question at all.  These references are
 fully qualified, so scoping doesn't enter in.

 The class A has a dictionary containing the names of r and func.  These
 are class attributes.  Each instance has a dictionary which will contain
 the name s AFTER the A.func() is called.  Ideally such an attribute will be
 assigned in the __init__() method, in which case every instance will have s
 in its dictionary.

 When you use a.qqq  the attribute qqq is searched for in the instance
 dictionary and, if not found, in the class dictionary.  If still not found,
 in the parent classes' dictionary(s).

 You can use dir(A) and dir(a) to look at these dictionaries, but it shows
 you the combination of them, so it's not as clear.  In other words, dir(a)
 shows you both dictionaries, merged.  (Seems to me dir also sometimes
 censors some of the names, but that's a vague memory. It's never left out
 anything I cared about, so maybe it's things like single-underscore names,
 or maybe just a poor memory.)

Re: At a loss on python scoping.

After read Dave's answer, I think I confused LEGB with attribute lookup.
So, a.r has nothing to do with LEGB.

How to quickly set up a multithreaded server that can handle http file post.

[Shiyao Ma]

Today I come across a problem.
Basically, my need is that I want to launch a http server that can not only
support get but also support post (including post file).
My first idea is to use -m http.sever. However, it only supports get.
Later I find some one extended basehttpserver and made it  support post.
However it is not multithreaded.

Is it easy to write a RELIABLE (I mean under normal cases) multithreaded
server that suits my need.
Also, are there any already invented wheel I can use?

Thx

  The best would be to use an existing webserver, such as Apache, Nginx,
 Lighttpd, etc. with python running as a fcgi or cgi script.

 Those webservers have been tested for longer and there is no need to
 reinvent the wheel.
